The familiar streets of the capital are rendered almost uncanny in this contemplative, tonal series by Berris Connoly. Captivating in their atmospheric, filmic quality, Connoly’s photographs reveal small moments from the past, hinting at stories that have just happened or are about to. They have both a stillness and a promise of approaching disturbance, drawing us in to the urban landscape and making the London of 40 years ago feel at once distant and strangely present.
How did the abolitionist movement interact with women’s entry into the field of photography? What does the medium have to do with menstrual taboos? Is there even such a thing as a ‘feminist image’? Whether working in the studio or on the front line, women have contributed to every aspect of photography’s short history. For some, gender is front and centre; for others, it’s merely incidental. All have been affected by the power structures beyond their camera lenses. Far too many have been, and continue to be, overlooked. Mapping photographic developments against shifting gender rights and roles, this book shines a light on how photography has borne witness to women’s movements and made the causes for which they fight visible, and how, in turn, different approaches to feminism have given us ways of understanding photographs.
